12.2.1.4 Detaching a Portal Template from a Page

If you will no longer use a Portal Template for a particular page, you can detach the template from the page. When you detach a Portal Template from a page, the page retains the same layout and content that was provided by the template, but the page now owns it. Any changes made to the template no longer affect the page. If you have a sufficient level of privilege, you will now be able to change the layout of the page and add content to any region. To detach a Portal Template from a page: 1. Log in to Oracle Portal.

2. Click the Build tab to bring it forward.

3. From the Page Groups portlet Work In drop-down list, select the page group that

owns the page from which to detach a template. By default, the Page Groups portlet is located on the Build tab of the Portal Builder page. Note: When you base a page on the template, it will initially use the template’s style. The page will continue to use the template’s style even when you enable pages based on the template to have their own style selections. Every time you update the style for the template, the style for the pages based on the template will also be updated. This relationship continues until you select a different style for the page.
